What's Hot

Hey all, I'm on the lookout for old strat parts (ideally '65-ish and earlier). I'm mostly interested in pickups and bridges but I'd love to hear about whatever you've got.

This little project started when I picked up a lovely 1965 strat neck recently. It's currently on an MJT body with repro parts (and sounding wonderful) but I figure if I've got one foot down the rabbit hole I might as well go all the way down... 

Cheers!

    This build sounds great, I’ve often wondered about doing a similar project with mjt body and vintage neck. Would be great to see pics of this coming together.

  • Bumping this thread on the off chance anyone's got some old strat parts lying around!

    I've now sourced a set of '65 pickups to go with the neck and it's totally brought the guitar to life. Here's a pic of the build in its current form:

  • I have a modified ‘57 Strat pickguard and original back plate?
